The Labor (Communist) Party of America invites the workers and poor farmers of the land to celebrate the First of May, the international mass holiday, so that they can organize in the fight against the reducing of wages, against lowering the standard of living, against theft and looting by bankers and capitalists, against the persecution of workers.

The Labor Party invites the masses to fight the Dawes' plan, accepted for international slavery. We must join the struggle against white terror, which is aimed at workers and peasants of Asia, Africa and Europe.
